I was raised poor so even now that I can afford it, I feel something forbidding me from buying cake. That and knowing that I gain weight very easily and it takes me lots of hours to get raid of it.

I am watching sitcoms from the 70s and you notice that they last for 25-26 minutes instead of 22 minutes.

People always says AI do create only variations but many successful TV shows are variations. I started watching sitcoms from the 70s and many things were copied/adapted in recent shows.

I was in some European city and there is one Chinese restaurant serving hot pot. So I wanted to try it. I ordered and selected the items I want for around 50€. The waitress asked me : "is that all? Do you want the menu?". So I was wondering if I didn't order enough. At the end, what I ordered was enough for at least 3 people. I was in a table for 4 people and it was full with all the dishes. The waitress then asked me if she need to bring a bowl of rice!
They brought the sauces and there was garlic on the plate. The odor ruined the whole meal for me. I couldn't eat most of it and I was disappointed as I don't like wasting food.

Pfizer says it will price Covid treatment Paxlovid at nearly $1,400 for a five-day course, which researchers estimate only costs Pfizer $13 to produce. That's a 10,000%+ markup. Shameful.

That's just an excuse because many drugs are sold at prices much lower what they are sold in the US. They are not selling them at loss in other countries.

A single knife is basically sufficient for everything, it is just the system pushing you to buy things you don't really need.

Do you know what happened to the author? I liked when he started posting on Reddit. At one time he said he had an accident.

Je regarde un Sitcom de 1980 et on parle de réchauffement climatique. 40+ ans après rien n'a été fait. C'est déprimant.

Stop asking the internet for permission. You're an adult.
I used to go to restaurants alone and I the last time I did it the waitress/owner started asking what I do and gave me the impression that she felt sorry for me.
Now it has been a while that I didn't go. It wasn't because of her but it I feel like it.

The tipping culture is very rooted in Americans. I was at restaurant in Europe and there was a customer (certainly American). He ate during 30 minutes or less, the waiter was nice but he wasn't doing it for tips and the customer only saw him when he ordered the food and at payment. The prices are high end.
When he paid he was surprised that there was no tipping options (unfortunately we started seeing them in some European countries) and asked him to pay another 10€ as a tip.

Many rich people are "donating" to avoid paying taxes and it another way for marketing. You are the proof of that, you are defending and promoting her.
Billionaires like her are the reason we have poverty and charity associations

It only cares about the US. It even censor things related to sex even when it is OK in Europe.
